By AirBaltic we have already talked about in numerous articles on TheFlightClub, the Latvian company is the only one in the world with a fleet of Airbus A220s, actually the company had chosen this model of aircraft when it was still called C-Series and was manufactured by Bombardier.
In this article:
Today the company that has its main hub in Riga airport can celebrate a record that is unlikely to be matched by companies in the industry. The company's Ceo, Martin Gaussm, has completed the course to become a pilot and has been licensed to fly all the planes in the fleet for a few days.
We are very proud of our CEO @Gaussm who has successfully completed his training course, becoming the first airline CEO in the world to have performed type rating on the @Airbus A220. pic.twitter.com/GI1KHVD2yq

As announced on Twitter, Gaussm is the first CEO of a global airline to obtain this certification and in fact will be able to Fly all 23 aircraft in the fleet, the last one in chronological order was delivered at the end of September 2020.
Last year, we were very proud to welcome our 21st A220-300 - the 100th manufactured @Airbus aircraft of this type. And now this aircraft has a special design! If you've already spotted it, share your photo with us! pic.twitter.com/KCoSKJAxil
